        Pay dirt!  I downloaded a new BETA release of the packet
   drivers from clarkson.  Something new -- a packet driver for IPX,
   humm... isn't that like simulating an abacus on a supercomputer?
   Then it hit me,  those token ring cards talk IPX just fine.  We
   re-configured the ka9q router to use the IPX packet driver on the
   token ring side and presto it all worked.  The TR workstations
   can attach to the NetWare server and use NCSA's telnet all at the
   same time.

   Many thanks to Phil Karn, Russ Nelson, and others who support
   this software.

You're welcome, but I *specifically* requested that you send a report
to me.  I don't say this to chide you, but rather to enourage others
to send me their reports.  I have had 77 people download drivers.arc,
and only received two reports.  This does not encourage me to do
open beta testing...
